  • Sorry. For #5, I misread it. You're correct there.

    Should clarify #4 as well. It's used in compounds most of the time, save for lists in which the items have commas in them. For a detailed explanation, try this. In any case, it's not really used to connect fragments.

    As for lept, not sure what's going on there. Probably someone added it to the dictionary by mistake.

    Anyway, you're welcome and sorry about the misinformation above. You still could offer corrections (and, in fact, I encourage you to because it's a great way to really get a handle on things for your own work), but just be careful next time.
    Couple of side notes I noticed about your review to Eyes of Odetta:

    1. Lept is not actually a word. Leapt is. Remember to spell-check your review before posting it.

    2. You seem to forget that the story is told in present tense, not past. Throughout your review, you attempt to correct a handful of verbs by making them past-tense while leaving alone the majority of the work. This creates inconsistencies.

    3. All pokémon names can be plurals or singulars. As in, to say "I see multiple machoke" is just as correct as "I see multiple machokes." In fact, canon considers the first (that pokémon names are plurals as well as singulars without needing an added S) to be correct.

    4. Semicolons are very rarely used, and in most cases, they're used to connect two independent clauses in the same way a comma and conjunction (and, but, or, nor, et cetera) would.

    5.


    You just told someone to create a comma splice.

    Basically speaking, be very careful when pointing out someone else's grammar. The worst thing you could do is give them corrections to their work that end up adding more errors to what they're trying to do.
    haha, the same. Cleaning a bunch of ungrateful hamster cages= Anger for all furry animals.
    Yeah, and we should continue this on msn ,lolol. I added your account. But Heck yeah! I'm all for Bruno biting the dust
    Kanto is mine as well, describing the demolished Saffron City would be most fun and delightful. And the Elite four could tie in somehow
    LOLNO

    So, do you want to start? Or should we now discuss (well, me throw out an idea, then you find a better one ;D)
